As the makers say - A Danish Blade Runner

This movie is somehow a different Danish movie. At this time the Dogme-agreement is mentioned all the time, but this movie has managed to become outstanding without being a Dogme-movie.

Skyggen (or The Shadow) is not only characterized by great actors, but it's also a fine presentation of "computer-films". I like the way "Techno-staden" is build, and the way Lars Bom portrays JB is fantastic. He is a very fine actor!

If you haven't already seen this movie - go see it. It's definitely worth spending time on.

No special effects, horrible dubbing

For a movie released in 2000, this movie is very disappointing. But then I found that it was actually a '98 Danish movie called Skyggen that was dubbed (badly) and released in English. It didn't even satisfy my need for a Sci-Fi flick. The acting was only OK, and the computer generated graphics were probably OK for '98, but still nothing spectacular.

The best thing since The Matrix, see it now!

One of the best cyberpunk movies ever. The story of two people trying to find each other in a shadowy underworld where computers are everywhere. Atmospheric and fascinating. The story is kind of like Strange Days, but better. The music rules. Ignore the stupid box and just rent it, you won't be disappointed. 9 out of 10.

Not that bad...

Nothing new in this movie if you have seen Blade Runner, Escape From New York and The Matrix, but for a Danish movie it is not that bad. More gory and sombre than you usually sees it. Las Bom is OK as the good guy, Jørgen Kiil is a respectable black hat and the ladies Rørbeck and Scharbau looks great as respectably Miauv and Barbie. The crime intrigue is too easily solved, but then it is Film Noir Sci-Fi, worth a look 5/10
